Post-Award Guidelines
Grant Denied
If your proposal has been denied, view it as an encouragement not a failure. As part of the official letter of denial, you are also likely to receive specific comments regarding your proposals. Use these comments to improve your proposal for the next grant cycle and your chances of success will increase considerably. Be sure to notify the Director of Academic Research about the funding agency's decision.
Grant Awarded
Forward a copy of the official award document to the Director of Academic Affairs who will then forward a copy to the Vice President of Academic Affairs.
If budget revisions are necessary they should be made before the implementation of the grant. The Principle Investigator is responsible for following all OMB circulars (OMB A-21; OMB A-110, and OMB A-133), federal laws, state laws and university guidelines, implementing the project, and insuring the programmatic and fiscal compliance for the project. In addition, comply with the grant reporting guidelines as set forth by the granting agency.
